Nice job. I just picked up one for my 250XC works way better than stock.

The evolution of shock technology is quite amazing, Supertrax is inginous

Indeed! It is true that there's little room for huge innovation on such a tried and tested format such as a DeCarbon shock, but any increment is a big deal 👌

@@StepstoPodium Well, I imagine that somewhere down the road, electronic driven suspension would be the next game changer

Thanks for explaining! I always thought it was alien technology because it works so well. I’ve had the pro components since 2016 but have never understood how exactly it works.

@@StepstoPodium can you do explanation of servicing the cone forks? Now that I know how things work I feel more comfortable servicing my own..

Probably we won't do that because it's not quite the kind of videos we like to focus on, but if you have any doubts, you can schedule a technical session and I can go over it 1-on-1 and clear all doubts 🙂 stepstopodium.com/technical-sessions/

Hi. As far as I understand the new SuperTrax system is vastly different from the old TRAX one, it doesn’t seem to utilize the “ground contact sensor” anymore (a set of springs in the clevis area that "drop" the rebound needle when no ground pressure is present). It looks more like a high speed/oil pressure dependent rebound adjustment in addition to the regular low speed rebound. It also looks like it will be activated in the deep shock stroke scenarios when the force of the spring extension and the oil pressure behind the piston pushing against the rebound shims are at their peaks. Correct me if I'm wrong please.

Hello! You're comment was a bit confusing to me as a whole (please don'ttake me the wrong way! 🙌), but yeah, it is quite different than the old one, and yes, the new one is triggered when the pressure below the piston is at a peak because it is suffering from all the pressure of the spring extensive force after a big compression 👌

Well you’ve basically answered my question, thanks! I’m pretty sure that some people are confused (like I was) by the new SuperTrax naming, expecting it to be the same TRAX system that “detects” when the rear wheel is off the ground and opens the rebound bypass when the wheel is not in contact with the surface, while in reality SuperTrax is a totally new system that doesn’t have this “sensor” but rather focuses on separating high and low speed rebound adjustments giving you more adjustability and control over the rebound damping. I wonder why WP ditched the old TRAX system in favor of the SuperTrax one.

Glad to hear I could help! 😄🙌 They essentially changed the design from a mechanical mechanism to an hidraulic one because of reliability. The mechanical mechanism's parts suffer a huugeeeee load with a very high frequency, so it was easy to fail eventually. The hidraulic mechanism os much more reliable since there's only an o-ring and spring.
